Michelle,
We have heavy hearts for the passing of your beautiful husband Tim. We loved him dearly and will miss him always. Words cant express our deepest feelings for Tim, for you and your children in this difficult moment. Michelle, Kyle, Beth, Kelly, David and Austin, always know that we love you and will be part of your lives now and forever.
Tim, rest well my Brother! Until we meet again we LOVE you!
Dear Michelle,
I am grateful to God that in the last year I have gotten to know Tim so much better. When we talked on the phone, he spoke often of his great love for you and for each of your children and your little grandson too. Also he had such great love for your father and mother, as well as his own parents and sisters.
I am praying with you this weekend, though I cannot be there with you in person, in gratitude for Tim. And praying for you and your children and all of Tim’s dearest loved ones, that you may know God’s comfort and peace and go into the weeks ahead with gratitude for your memories of Tim, that you had him in your lives and for all he taught you and shared with you.
Michelle
I am sorry for your loss. My deepest sympathies are with you and your family during this difficult time.
